Dear lovely supporters, 

I am really excited (if not slightly terrified at the thought of NfB being read) to let you know that your special edition copies are in the process of being packed up and will be with you very soon... and what beautiful things they are. Unbound have done an incredible job on the production side to produce a really high-quality book with lots of extras that the trade edition won't have - it's even got a bookmark ribbon! - I can't wait for you to see it.

For those of you who pledged for a book group visit, writing workshop or walking tour, I'm thinking it would be best to do these in January or February once you've had a chance to read it so will be in touch directly in the next month or so to arrange, but let me know if that doesn't suit. I'll contact you again in January with information about book launch events where hopefully I'll get to meet some of you! And if you have any ideas for events (readings, book group visits, library visits, karaoke nights) local to you, please let me know, I love to travel!

And please do sign up to my mailing list via my website if you'd like email updates about events etc: www.martinemcdonagh.com

All best
